Without ieee80211_ops->flush implemented to empty HW queues, mac80211 will
do a 100ms dead wait after stopping SW queues, before leaving the operating
channel to resume a software connected scan[1].
(see ieee80211_scan_state_resume)
This wait is correctly included in the calculation for whether or not
we've exceeded max off-channel time, as it occurs after sending the null
frame with PS bit set. Thus, with 125 ms max off-channel time we only
have 25 ms of scan time, which technically isn't even enough to scan one
channel (although mac80211 always scans at least one channel per off-
channel window).
Moreover, for passive probes we end up spending at least 100 ms + 111 ms
(IEEE80211_PASSIVE_CHANNEL_TIME) "off-channel"[2], which exceeds the listen
interval of 200 ms that we provide in our association request frame. That's
technically out-of-spec.
[1]: Until recently, wcn36xx performed software (rather than FW-offloaded)
scanning when 5GHz channels are requested. This apparent limitation is now
resolved -- see commit 1395f8a6a4d5 ("wcn36xx: Enable hardware scan offload
for 5Ghz band").
[2]: in quotes because about 100 ms of it is still on-channel but with PS
set

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
